People need to stop thinking some hero or someone is going to save us. We need to save ourselves by being active in our democracy and by electing leaders who are competant. The fact that Bush even got elected means that people were not paying attention, were not informed, and were not educating themselves beyond the surface that was in television media. That means, stop relying on Fox and the rest of television as our information source. It doesn't inform us. Start watching and listening to indy media and start reading more educated journals about the candidates and what and who they stand for. As soon as the people decide to stop being lazy about their country, and decide to take responsibility for their gov't, we will get the leaders we need to do the same. Until then, we get what we deserve for slacking off our citizen duties.

Just accept the fact that the country is in somewhat of a downward spiral for the time being. Theres really no easy solution. When complaining about gas prices remember that outside of saudi arabia we still have the cheapest gasoline in the world, and they're only going to rise as the global supply decreases.

People need to join and fight together to save this country. The elected officials will NOT lift a finger to do it for us. We need to combine and fix it ourselves.
Listen to the words from the song, "Land of Confusion". It is soo True!

You forgot to mention that educational levels are also "plumiting".
